Abstract
Leukocyten aus Nabelschnurblut von 8 reifen und 12 unreifen Neugeborenen und Blutleukocyten von 10 Erwachsenen wurden mit3H-Thymidin inkubiert. Die anschließende Belichtung der autoradiographischen Filmemulsion erfolgte für 45 und 90 Tage. 1,7% der Lymphoidzellen im Erwachsenenblut, 2,9% und 4,5% der Lymphoidzellen im Nabelschnurblut von Reifgeborenen bzw. Frühgeborenen zeigten eine cytoplasmatische Markierung, die als Ausdruck mitochondraler DNS-Synthese gewertet wurde. Die statistische Auswertung zeigt, daß markierte Zellen im Blut der Frühgeborenen signifikant (p3H-thymidine and were subsequently exposed to autoradiographic emulsion for prolonged periods of 45 and 90 days. Cytoplasmic label — which we interpreted as evidence of mitochondrial DNA synthesis — was found in 1.7 per cent of lymphoid cells from adult blood, in 2.9 per cent and 4.5 per cent of lymphoid cells from full-term and premature infants, respectively. Statistical analysis of the data shows that the number of labelled cells is significantly larger in the blood of premature infants than in adults (p<0.01).Keywords
